gm9 Title Fixer is a script intended for consoles where applications installed to the SD cards are missing from the HOME Menu but appear normally in System Settings -> Data Management -> Nintendo 3DS -> Software. If the apps are grayed out and have X's on them, use faketik to restore them. The software scans all of the apps installed on the SD card and finds any with missing or malformed files or structures, deleting them as they often cause issues with the HOME Menu. It also has the functionality to verify every installed title's files if the console often shows sd card was removed. errors, or other errors that indicate corrupted applications, although this is a time-intensive process.

Select "Quick Test" and press A
